This is probably one of the last places you'd think to look for a good breakfast as far as restaurants go. Their style of food originated pretty far from North Dakota, and yet here they are in the Peace Garden State being claimed as having the best breakfast ever by many of the people who go there. So just what is this place and why is starting off your morning there considered so good? Let's find out!
This little restaurant in Fargo is easy to miss, but the sign might catch your eye.
The Cajun Cafe, a true hidden gem of the state. With a crawfish on their sign you still wouldn't really be thinking breakfast, but once you head inside and try it for yourself, you'll see why it is so loved.
Whether you are in the mood for a classic breakfast or something a bit more unusual, The Cajun Cafe has it. Their biscuits and gravy are second to none, and add a side of hash browns and you've got a great meal.
What they are well known for is their crawfish omelette with a delicious, special red sauce on top. It tends to be the favorite breakfast item and definitely not something you can find in North Dakota easily! This is super tasty with some hash browns and a side of sweet potato pancakes.
They have more than just crawfish on the menu when it comes to mixing their breakfast with seafood. Crab cake with toast is another drool-worthy option.
They serve more than just breakfast, and they do get truly cajun with some of their options. Below is a alligator po boy - and yes, you read that right, alligator - with a side of gumbo. The restaurant has quite a few po boy and gumbo options for a perfect combination.
Top it all off with some sweet and delicious beignets, and you'll be set for the day after such an amazing breakfast.
The Cajun Cafe is located at 1324 25th Ave S, Fargo, ND 58103. Even if you aren't sure if you like cajun food or not, this is the place to try it.
